Here you can see Virmond Park - it's a lot different from what it was in the 70s. But there is a walk way in the southern part that takes you to the slim sliver of beach. Along that beachline, if passable, might have washed up bones or other items that might be evidence. Of coure, that all is if Orin drowned. Be safe going here.
